KDE 3.2 via APT

Someone upgraded to 3.2 via apt? If yes, i'd like to have the link for the sources.list :)


Thanks,

You are looking for http://kde-redhat.sourceforge.net/. Its the kde on redhat project. Check in unstable... stable is generally reserved for the current stable KDE. You will find the sources.list entries on their website.

Anybody know of a stable apt repository for KDE 3.2 now that it's been released? I've been checking all the usuals (kde-redhat) every 5 minutes but they haven't added them yet.

Does anyone know if it will mess up my apt setup if I upgrade manually using the RPMS? (and yes I know I'm impatient) :P

FYI, KDE 3.2 has been moved to "testing" now, so at least the packages have seen a fair amount of field testing.

We're working out a few relatively minor buglets, and after the packages finish building (and barring any new bugs), I foresee these moving to stable by the end of the week.

No, apt doesn't mind of you install packages manually...

For those of you who would like to install KDE 3.2 on fedora core 1 there is an article by fedoranews.org on doing it. Its fairly striaght-forward and includes a link to an ftp repository of the necessary rpms.

After downloading the rpms the install is as simple as rpm -Fvh *

They also include a tutorial on getting KDE 3.2 installed with yum (the apt like application used by up2date.)
